Muffin top

Despite this being one of the few beers in our collection that The Husband picked out and was waiting to drink, he is still not inspired to write the blog.  Thanks for your help dude.

But apparently he will narrate for me:  "good bitterness.  Label said it was belgian-style, but it was not so much.  More of an unfiltered IPA with a slightly bitter taste.  Strong.  Bitter and tart finish.  Medium body, unless wife pours the bottom of the bottle into your glass like mine did...then it's a full figured beer - which is maybe where the muffin top comes into play.  Dunno. Slightly-boozy aftertaste.  No off flavors --- just a strong flavor.  Plenty of booze to fill up any muffin top.  Wouldn't purchase again."

In the meantime, I tasted lots of citrus, bubbles and a slight bitterness.  I didn't detect the IPA nature of this beer at all.  I would say that it is a high alcohol content Belgian-style brew.  I'd buy it again if the price were right and there was a fun occasion to present a beer with a fun (and apparently controversial) label.
